"My wife and I's house?"?

Is that right? Or is it "my wife's and my house?" or something like that? Help!

And please only answer if you actually know.

    It is 'my wife's and my house'.

    Grammatically, yes it is "my wife's and my house". However it is legally wrong if only one of you own the house. It could be "my house, where my wife also lives" or "my wife's house, in which I also live".

    Getting a divorce could make the grammar easier.

  • Get divorced and it just becomes the wives house.

    "my wife's and my house" makes more sense than any of those.

    my wife's house, n my house"

    that's right

    or just say

    "our house, my wife's and mine"

    "I" is not a possessive pronoun. Have your ever heard of I's? How about making it easy, and say "our house"?

    haha just keep it simple and say "our house"
